Twin Flame Signs - 11 Signs That You’re In The Twin Flame Runner & Chaser Phase

11 Signs You’re In The Twin Flame “Runner & Chaser” Phase

It’s been well publicised in Twin Flame communities that couples often experience a phase that’s been coined as “The Twin Flame Runner & Chaser Phase”…

(Although personally I don’t fully agree with that name, as I feel that both the terms “Runner” & “chaser”  feel somewhat derogatory to those people who are actually experiencing these moments, I’ll continue to use the term in this post to save from any confusion, as it’s such well known terminology in the Twin Flame community - Do you feel like being labelled as a “runner” or “chaser” has negative implications?… please let me know your thoughts on this down in the comments… as I may write more on this subject if readers also have strong opinions on this terminology)

The Runner & Chaser phase of the Twin Flame relationship can be one of the most challenging times throughout the journey. It’s a time when karmic cycles can come full swing and temporary separation becomes highly likely… but there are also many positives to this often emotional and complex phase… great spiritual growth and wisdom are usually gained throughout this difficult time, making it an important step in the Twin Flame journey.

Below are 11 signs that you and your Twin Flame are in the “Runner/Chaser” phase of the relationship but it’s important to note that all Twin Flame journeys are unique and signs can be very different for every couple…

11 Signs You’re In The Twin Flame “Runner & Chaser” Phase:

1 - You & Your Twin Flame Broke Up / Are In A Phase Of Separation Right Now…

It’s very common for Twin Flames to experience a time of separation, usually not too long after they first meet and get together… and this can unfortunately happen more than once throughout the relationship.

Unresolved karma and unfinished soul work can contribute to breakups, arguments, distrust, insecurities and fear… which can all lead to one or both Twin Flames feeling like running from the connection.

2 - You Haven’t Started Your Twin Flame Relationship Yet…

If it’s taking a particularly long time for the relationship to turn romantic it could be a sign of Twin Flame Running/Chasing, even if it’s still early on and you’re still forming the friendship or in that flirtatious stage… these early decisions, emotions and interactions can all be divine moments that form your path to Twin Flame union.

Remember that every Twin Flame relationship is unique and will go at its own pace, just enjoy the journey and trust that everything will unfold with divine right timing.

3 - You Or Your Twin Flame Feel Like They “Need Some Space”…

Does the phrase “Give me some space” sound familiar to you right now?… if it does then please don’t panic, at some point throughout any relationship either party can feel the need for some space from time to time, it’s normal… but it must always be respected - If your Twin Flame has asked for some space then give them that and likewise, your request for some space should also be respected too.

The Twin Flame relationship can be overwhelming at times, there’s many occasions which require each Twin Flame to feel the need for solitude, to go within, reflect, re-evaluate and breathe… you shouldn’t deny each other the space to do that… it can be an important time of learning and growth for both Twin Flames.

4 - You Or Your Twin Flame Stops Or Limits Contact…

Again, if you or your Twin Flame wishes to stop or limit contact, then this needs to be respected… These are clear boundaries which one feels are needed at the time and the other unfortunately must just accept it, preferably with grace.

Although it can be rare for Twin Flames to ever want to fully stop all contact to the other, it does  happen. Sometimes it isn’t even personal or even about the relationship at all… but their own personal circumstances and situation which means that communication and the relationship can’t be a priority to them right now.

It doesn’t mean that they aren’t your Twin Flame… but it doesn’t mean that they are either, so it can be a good time to go within and reassess the situation. Continue to live your life and do the things you usually do. If they are your Twin Flame and you’re destined to be together, they’ll initiate contact with you again when the time is right.

5 - You Or Your Twin Flame Are Being Emotionally Distant…

There are times throughout the Twin Flame relationship when things can become overwhelming and one or both Twin Flames start putting up walls and blocking each other emotionally.

During the Twin Flame runner/chaser phase these emotional blockages can become more prominent and need working through in order to progress past. There’s usually an underlying reason, fear, vulnerability or thought that needs attention before those walls can come back down.

6 - You’re Going Through A Twin Flame Karmic Cycle…

Karma plays a key role in the Twin Flame relationship and throughout the Runner/Chaser phase.

Unresolved karma, past cycles and unfinished business… even from past lives can pop up and result in Twin Flames running from the connection, these are cycles that all Twin Flames must eventually progress through on their way to union.

7 - You Or Your Twin Flame Feel The Need To Be Dishonest Or Lie…

There’s no place in the Twin Flame connection for lies and deception, however it’s well known that at times couples do lie to each other… even if their intentions are good, dishonesty can lead to all kinds of problems and trouble for Twin Flames.

Lying might cause quite a pickle throughout the Twin Flame runner/chaser phase as even when we try to be honest, wires can easily become crossed, situations misunderstood and miscommunications leave the couple in a mess…

Often the Twin Flame relationship has many lessons in line for us regarding truth and honesty, it’s much easier on ourselves to be as truthful as we can with our Twin Flame.

8 - You’re Still Torn Between Your Twin Flame & Somebody Else…

This one is a little more complicated because you’d think it would seem obvious to instantly choose your Twin Flame… but the truth is, at least at the start… who that is exactly can be hard to figure out… especially if you find yourself choosing between your Twin Flame and a Soulmate as on the surface it can appear as though you click with a Soulmate even more easily than you do with your Twin Flame…

Also, to add to the confusion… many Twin Flames find themselves in the difficult situation of already being romantically involved with someone or even already being married and committed when they finally meet their Twin Flame - leaving them with a heavy decision to make when it comes to acting on their feelings.

9 - You Or Your Twin Flame Feel Overwhelmed By The Relationship…

Feeling overwhelmed is very common during the runner/chaser Twin Flame phase, sometimes the emotions and thought paths that occur when Twin Flames meet, can simply feel too big or too complex and life changing to come to terms with. It can take some serious self reflection, contemplation and going within before Twin Flames start to get their minds around what is happening.

It can be a confusing time, with many triggering moments and lessons that spark spiritual awaking… and that can be a lot to deal with.

10 - You Have Doubts Over Whether They Are Your Twin Flame Or Not…

Doubts over who your Twin Flame is can become consuming, especially during the Twin Flame Runner/Chaser phase, when our doubts are usually exacerbated even more by separation, disagreements & distrust.

Unfortunately not everyone who thinks they’ve found their Twin Flame actually has, as it’s quite common to experience a relationship that can feel a lot like a Twin Flame relationship happening just before you meet your actual Twin Flame, almost like a trial run - this has also led to the concept of “False Twin Flames”.

Even after meeting your actual Twin Flame, doubts can still creep in and lead to phases of running/chasing, its difficult to ever be 100% certain and not occasionally be struck with thoughts of “have I got this all wrong?”… “are we actually meant to be together?”… “Are they really the one?”…  it can be helpful to Meditate and reflect on these questions when they arise so that they can be fully explored and hopefully put to rest.

11 - You Feel Like You Have To Initiate Everything…

If it feels like you’re the only one initiating conversations, intimacy or activities then it could be a sign that you’re experiencing a phase of Twin Flame “Running & Chasing” as your Twin Flame is no longer participating in the relationship in an active role and pulling away from the connection emotionally.

They may feel like they need some space to gather their thoughts and reflect on the relationship and they should be allowed to do so in peace…

So just for a bit give them some room and focus on your own goals and dreams and allow them to re-initiate when they’re ready.

It’s also entirely unfair on you to have to be solely responsible for the relationship, it may mean that your Twin Flame has more to learn or spiritual maturing to do first.
